I have just witnessed perhaps the greatest basketball game in my entire life.
Down one with just five seconds to go, the Hilltoppers’ Tyrone Brazelton drove the length of the court, dished it off to Ty Rogers, and the guard nailed the 3 at the buzzer to claim a 101-99 victory in overtime here in Tampa.
As soon as the shot fell through the nylon, the crowd absolutely erupted. Chills went up and down my body and my jaw literally dropped and stayed that way for almost three minutes as I watched the Hilltoppers burst on the court and jump all over each other in celebration.
It’s hard to put the emotion on the court into words, but I can say that this is by far one of the great moments of my life and it should be one of the most memorable ones of this year’s tournament.
The Huskies are on court right now, warming up for their first-round match-up with San Diego. I’ll be back with more when I can focus on the game ahead.
